Some People Just Want to Follow

Some people just want to be led. Instead of saying, “Lets go! C’mon!” They say, “Are we gonna go?” Its like they are waiting for someone to lead them. They won’t walk out the door until someone else walks out the door first, and they won’t walk in the front of a...

Why is Internet Explorer Still Causing Problems?

Internet Explorer has been around since 1995…thats 18 years. A long time right? So why is it still so buggy? Yesterday I helped a 50 something year old lady with her computer (a new PC). She had a file she was trying to attach to an email. She could see the...

Fingerprints and Biometrics Are Part of the Future

I Disagree with Steve Jobs – I don’t want to own my music

For some reason, I’ve thought a lot lately about Steve Jobs’ statement that: “People want to own their music.” I love the work Steve did, and I respect his opinion. However, I don’t feel that way. I for one, don’t want to own my...
